About this map

The Olentangy River cuts a deep corridor through central Delaware County, defining the local geography as it flows southward past Mount Air and into Franklin County. This mid-century landscape is characterized by its transportation network, where the Norfolk and Western and Penn Central railroads parallel the river, connecting rural hubs like Lewis Center and Gregory. Near the western edge of the sheet, the O'Shaughnessy Reservoir and the Columbus Zoo represent significant infrastructure and recreational developments of the era.
